I need to do some custom mouse tracking in a NSTextFieldCell.

Based on the documentation, when a cell is clicked,
- (BOOL)startTrackingAt:(NSPoint)startPoint inView:(NSView *)controlView

should be called.

However, neither this method nor

- (void)stopTracking:(NSPoint)lastPoint at:(NSPoint)stopPoint inView: (NSView *)controlView mouseIsUp:(BOOL)flag

- (BOOL)trackMouse:(NSEvent *)theEvent inRect:(NSRect)cellFrame ofView: (NSView *)controlViewuntilMouseUp:(BOOL)untilMouseUp

are ever invoked. I cannot seem to locate any other methods that would tell me where the cell was clicked or when the mouse button was let up and where.


- (NSUInteger)hitTestForEvent:(NSEvent *)event inRect: (NSRect)cellFrame ofView:(NSView *)controlView


is being called and I may be able to put all of my logic in here by looking at the event information, etc., but I would like to be able to use startTrackingAt & stopTracking if that were possible.

Is there something unique about a NSTextFieldCell that prevents these methods from being invoked?
